I am a single mom with 2 small elementary children and I work part-time so I am not home as much. I am very conscientious about electric usage and have tried to do everything in my power to lower my $179 monthly bill. I even cut off my ac and heat and open windows or close them depending on weather. And it doesn't go down. I'm hesistant to buy the bulbs because of that cost and doubt I would be able to see the long term savings that everyone talks about. I don't understant why the bills are so much higher in apartments when there is less to cover. And I sometimes want to install myself the motion switches but they will probably not be benefitial to me either since we are usually all in the same room trying to conserve. How do I work around this? How do I test out your theory? Does it really benefit people in my situation? Has it been proven? I'd love to try but afraid I'd be spending more money I can't afford to waste.While I understand the savings that comes with this, I often wonder if it is even worth the try when it comes to apartments.

I would love to try them if they fit in my budget with a coupon some time, because I do NOT like the CFL's because they are so dim. I would love some bright light.

Also, keep your eyes open to rebates offered through the Dept. of Energy! They often offer rebates when you buy a certain amount of bulbs, so pair that with a good Home Depot deal and you can't lose!oh...and...Home Depot regularly has sales on energy savings bulbs and often sells them in bulk packs so it's easier to replace all of the bulbs in your home at the same time.

LauraThu, 03 Mar 2011 16:53:30 +0000http://dealseekingmom.com/?p=71799#comment-425681Like you, we have always been aware of how much energy we use and so have taken lots of energy savings measures to cut our electric bill (though rates never seem to go down no matter how much energy cuts you make, hmmmm, interesting...). For people who couldn't be bothered, however and want to make a big difference in a very simple way, replacing bulbs WILL definitely get you significant savings nearly right away. I remember the first time I changed most (not all) light bulbs, my bill went down about $5 per month. And...I can't remember how long it's been since I replaced a light bulb! That's a blessing in itself - one more silly household chore I don't have to do.Like you, we have always been aware of how much energy we use and so have taken lots of energy savings measures to cut our electric bill (though rates never seem to go down no matter how much energy cuts you make, hmmmm, interesting...).
